Francis,

I am afraid the spring I sent you will not work in your PH. That is the failing of Dixie springs. I was told by Larry DelGrego that Parker had three sizes of top lever springs, one for hammer guns and two for hammerless in addition to the new style. Others here have had the same thing happen to them as you have. I had it happen to me once with a Dixie spring and had to take a 1 1/4" hammer gun spring from Dixie and and cut it down. When finished it was just a tad longer than the one you have. If you like you can send that one back and I will return your check. I have seen Parkers with two holes drilled into the tang for the top lever spring. You might order the longer spring from Dixie and work it down or you might be able to beg one from DelGrego.

Sorry about the part not working. The highway to you know where is paved with good intentions.

Harry
